| | Best Of Culture Club CD Culture Club Discography of CDs
A cheap but serviceable budget compilation, THE BEST OF CULTURE CLUB wisely focuses on the group's best albums, 1982's KISSING TO BE CLEVER and 1983's COLOUR BY NUMBERS, including only one song each from the other two. 1986's "Move Away, " in particular, is a nice bit of Philly soul.
The selection is excellent, gathering all of the group's A-sides to remind listeners that Culture Club were possibly the best pop-soul act of the early '80s. You can't argue with songs like "Time (Clock of the Heart)," or the moving piano ballad "Victims."
Featuring these top selling hits, 'Karma Chameleon', 'Do You Really Want To Hurt Me' and 'Time' (Clock Of The Heart). 10 tracks. Collectables. 2003. Best Of Culture Club Music Best Of Culture Club Songs Best Of Culture Club Music Best Of Culture Club Review

Best Of Culture Club album

Attitude, the second album from the California quintet Troop, featured four charting singles. The first release, "I'm Not Soupped," is the least credible of the four. With the title's rather doltish connotation, the dance number still managed to ...
| | Bob James Joined At The Hip CD (1996)
Best Of Culture Club CD music
$7.59
JOINED AT THE HIP was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Jazz Performance.
JOINED AT THE HIP features Bob James and saxophonist Kirk Whalum as a team. After several appearance on one another's solo efforts, James and Whalum realized that they had similar playing styles, and as James said, "were eager to explore that compatibility in a pressure-free environment, [while] keeping everything loose and fun." Given that attitude, the album manages to break away from some of the stylistic parameters typically found on contemporary jazz albums.
Whalum stretches out and lets the opening track, "Soweto," build over ten minutes. "Kickin' ...

| | Sergio Salvatore Point Of Presence CD (1997)
Best Of Culture Club album
$12.59
Sergio Salvatore has the odd fortune of resembling child actor Fred Savage from TV's "The Wonder Years, " and that could have plagued the public's openmindedness towards taking him seriously as a major jazz talent, rather than just a cute novelty. Fortunately, deep talent has won out and the prodigy, now a teenager, has bloomed into a multi-faceted composer/performer. A true product of the 90's, he not ...

| | Nick Castro Further From Grace CD (2005)
Best Of Culture Club songs
$10.95
On his second album, Nick Castro works with a slightly ad hoc band, the Poison Tree, drawing on similarly Pennsylvania-based 21st century acoustic/psych performers such as folks from Espers. It's a fine pairing, resulting in an album very much in the vein of performers old and new such as the Incredible String Band in its quieter moods and Stone Breath at its most gothed out. As many musicians are now actively exploring this vein, though, it's all the more important to stand out from the field. Castro's singing voice is in ways his calling card. His songs are enjoyable if not surprising interpretations of the form, so it's the clear, crisp rasp in his singing -- a bit Nick Drake on songs like "Guilford" but not overly indebted -- that often lends a slight edge to the compositions, less a medieval minstrel, say, than a reflective veteran from some strange conflict. While musically acoustic guitar unsurprisingly forms the basis of the arrangements, it's Castro's work on whistles (and on "Music for Mijwiz" that particular wind instrument), Adam Hershberger's on flügelhorn, and Helena ...

| | Reesa & The Rooters Melt The Iceman CD (2008)
Best Of Culture Club CD music
$7.99
UN-sexy. UN-cool. UN-common. The leader of quirky '80s Philly new-wave band Reesa and The Rooters drives her punky pop band through a three-song CD, "Melt the Iceman.""If I were still hosting "Street Beat" on WMMR, Reesa's CD would be on the air! The songwriting is solid, the musicianship is polished and Reesa's voice is killer! I especially like her treatment of Alan Mann's "You Can't Talk to Her." Give the CD a listen - you won't be disappointed."— Cyndy Drue, WMGK Radio Personality, Philadelphia Although she's been compared to Blondie and the B-52s, Reesa Marchetti says her sound is "punky rock for aging new-wavers."Previously known for jumping on- and off-stage during her outrageous antics, Reesa now performs seated in a power chair. She was diagnosed with MS 10 years ago, but she keeps her shows energetic with abilities gained from wheelchair dance lessons. Reesa and The Rooters will appear July 11 at the Tritone on South Street in Philadelphia.Reesa's original tune, "Melt the Iceman," starts the CD with a slamming rock beat, '70s flashback guitar, lush harmonies and eccentric lyrics. Her fun pop organ and Randy "Dance" Bucksner's sax ride a Bo Diddleyesque beat on the second cut, "Old Boy Friend." The lyrics detail a surprising story of a middle-aged woman's memories haunting her life. The third track on the CD, "You Can't Talk to Her," was written not by Reesa but by another Philadelphia indie artist, Alan Mann. This prolific songwriter died tragically in 1987, just when his popularity was rising. Reesa's treatment of Alan's song takes it from his straight-ahead, new-wave ska to a sensuous, smart and bubbling dance rhythm. Guest artist Randy Dance, who recorded the original with The Alan Mann Band in 1979, blows kick-up-your-heels sax on Reesa's version. RootersThe re-formed Rooters include Reesa's previous band-mate, drummer Len Brown; bass player Ron Chinappi; and guitarist Sean Naylor. John Melinchock, also a former band member, recorded the guitar on the CD. Backup singers on the CD are Maureen Simmons (Reesa's ...
